Robin Hood
The taron egerton one. Might actually be the worst movie i've ever seen. It's the standard robin hood starter movie, but stylistically it's a dog's dinner. Nottingham looks like 16th century venice and peaky blinders brum, the outfits are everything from rags to neo fascist, the accents run from australian, to irish to cockney, the action is just assassin creed, and the antagonism is just trump/bush versus antifa.
I don't generally mind a bit of anachronism in film, films are meant to be a bit silly and not academic history. But this has about a dozen different things going on, all the time, and none of them are good. Shame because it's got Ben Mendelsohn, Jamie Foxx and F. Murray Abraham in it and they could be in a great robin hood movie. Not really seen egerton in much, but he's rotten and tim minchin is worse, but atleast has the excuse of not being an actor.
Like i say, probably the worst 'proper' movie i've ever seen. Unless, anyone cares to up the stakes? Oh, and what's the best Robin Hood film; the early nineties non Costner one is on sky cinema and is dece and obviously Disney's is a stone cold classic. Connery's one is great for a change of pace too.
